OFF TO A GREAT START

The year has got off to a great start with a very successful Social Day and birthday party.
We even had a cake organised by Shirley. (and yummy it was too, thanks Shirley.)




The car park was absolutely full and the sound of laughter and chatter echoed through Bellbowrie.
New members were welcomed and lots of catching up was done along with a little sewing, playing Mahjong etc.

The following week we had the first of our monthly Handcraft Days for the year.
Lots of planning for the projects for the year was accomplished and here is the proposed program for the year.
